Intro to Forums

Oh, hey guys. Before you head on into the forums, let's have a little talk. We're not big on rules around here, but are a few things you should know.

The forums, and comments for that matter, are not moderated except for a bad word filter. You type it, hit submit, it's on the site. Yay! Discussions can carry on even when I'm in a meeting or just ignoring you. Try not to abuse this. Things have gotten a little out of hand in the comments lately. See if we can be a little more respectful going forward.

See an offensive comment or forum post? Report it! Naturally, I have the power to override abuse reports. So keep that in mind. If I think someone is just being picked on, that comment will reappear.

Now that we do have forums, I'm going to be more strict about keeping comments on Nuze posts on topic. You have some forum topics already set up. And there's a place to suggest more that you might need. You'll even find Cafe Boortz, a place for off topic silliness.

You have the ability to add threads to all the topics, but I do ask that you NOT add them to the Feedback on Today's Show topic. I'll add a new one each day for you.

In the member center, you can add your own avatar and as much or as little information as you like in the Public Profile tab. Remember, everyone can see that, so be cautious.

Yes, these are really simplistic forums. Sorry, no private messaging, etc. But it beats what we had before, right? And one nice thing about them is that you don't have to log into them separately.

The website framework is a work in progress. New features will come along as time goes by. Maybe some of our wish list items will even come to pass.

Now, are you ready to hit the forums? Go!
